CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -“THE EYES LOOK, BUT THE BRAIN SEES”: VISUAL PROCESSING DISORDERS. Vision therapy does not only treat functional vision disorders but perceptual ones as well. A visual processing disorder is not a physical disability of the eye, but a deficit in the brain’s ability to identify, organize, and process visual information.

Detailed explanation-2: -Visual processing is a term that is used to refer to the brain’s ability to use and interpret visual information from the world around us. The process of converting light energy into a meaningful image is a complex process that is facilitated by numerous brain structures and higher level cognitive processes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Our visual perception starts in the eye with light and dark pixels. These signals are sent to the back of the brain to an area called V1 where they are transformed to correspond to edges in the visual scenes.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is Visual Processing. Visual processing skills are what our brain uses to make sense of what we see in the world around us. When a child is behind in the development of visual processing skills, learning can take longer, requiring more cognitive effort that slows down the learning process.

Detailed explanation-5: -Visual Motor Processing. Using feedback from the eyes to coordinate the movement of other parts of the body. For example, copying from board or books or accurately identifying information from pictures, charts, graphs, maps, etc.
